Tux LOST MEXICAN MINES,
FROM WHICH FABULOUS
WEALTH WAS TAKEN
In the Last Century, and the Records
OF which Were Hidden Dur
ing This Time, Found.

ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, April GA special
dispatch from the City OF Mexico tri-
umphantly announces the discovery
OF two Of the seven lost Mexican bo-
nahzs mines by an American pErty OF
prospectors. Humboldt and Hamilton
speak OF the fabulous wealth obtained
by Spsniards. They vera worked up
to the middle OF the last century. In
1866 the Indians swept over Northern
Mexico aud destroyed Chihuahua and
all the miners were driven out The
Indians held control of the country 70
long that all records were lost. Re-
Gently Lieut.. Klipper, formerly OF the
United States army; w. X. Glenn, oil
Illinois; Capt. Allen and ]. McIntire,
OF Chicago, went out on a surveying
expedition in the interest Of Sonora
land company, and in an old chapel
found maps and other data. Dividing
into four small parties, q thorough
search was begun, aud McIntire's
party located what is believed to be
the "LsyoIa" silver mine. 1t il
in the midet OF thousands
OF ruined buildings among large
churches aud forts. Within a radius
OF four miles are APO workings, old
Spanish furnaces and tons Of Stag. A
few days later Powers's party reported
the discovery OF the Guaynopa in the
heart OF the Sierra Macre mountains
Around 1t are the ruins OF 118 rasto-
ras. Advicts from NOgales conf I'm
the report and state that a grea, placer
field has bsen located where the
Jesuits Of 800 years ago found fortunes
for the church. Great excitement in
mining circles prevails.
The GuayDopa mine lie a fres milling
gold nine. It is In the heart of the
Sierra Msdre mountains and the work
ings are near she top OF q conical
shaped mountain. A road hewH
through the solid rocks circles around
this mountain, starting from the water
at the bass and leading to the miBe.
One chamber OF the mine Is 100 feet
wide, 400 eat long and 80 feet high.
This will give an idea Of how the mir
was work. d by the Span ards. There
is no dump; every pound of rock has
been taken out and carried down the
mountain and worked, which is evil
dence that the ore was homogeDp Gus
and all rich enough 10 20 to the "rss-
tora." Toere are the ruins Of ll8 Ias.
toras at the 70 t Of the mountain.
The rastors was the old Spar ish and
Mexican stamp mill. Mr. Power has
claimed this mine for Mr.. Kruse end
himself. The ore brought out has
been ass yed aud gives SIG to the
ton, 1t beirg perfectly free milling.
By way OF comparison, it may be
stated that the H1mestake, probably
tue moet profitable gold mine at this
time in the STATES, pays 100000
month on ore which yields 50 50 a
ton. Close by this mine was found
the deserted stronghold of the
Apsches. There were forts on the
mountain tops and tons of jerkel
meat were scattered about. The
Apschss had utilized the houses
from which the miners had been
driven. There were indications of
Indian occupancy ex eu dirg through
many years. The news of these dis.
eoveries had been brought to the
City Of Mexico by part 81 from
Sonora,

TEARS OFF THE ROOF OF A
PRINTING MILL,
Sending Bricks, Shingles and Debris
Sailing Through the Air,
Grating Havoc.

NEW YoRK, April 27.-A quick sue
cession Of terrific explosions occurred
this morning in the Bolton DYER &,
Printing and Bleaching Oompauy's
mills, in the village OF Bronxdale, West
chester lcounty. The shock was like
an earthquake, and extended to ra-
dius OF three miles. The mills consist
Of thres large brick buildings, situated
on the Bronx river, about mile from
Fordham, and Just outside Of the city
limits. The mill was discovered to be
on FIRE at $3.50 o'clock this morning,
and soon all the available engines were
throwing water on the flames. The
flames were shooting up fifty feet high,
lighting up the country for miles
sround. Suddenly an explosion &C.
CURED that shook the country houses
in the immediate neighborhood to
their very foundations, threatening to
shake them down. Men, women and
children rushed out Of their houses in
their night clothes, screaming and
Wringipg their hands. The first explo-
sion was followed in rapid succession
by four Others, that tore of the roof
and end Of the mill, and sent bricks,
shingles and debris sailing through
the air distance OF hundred yards.
The FIRE was got under control at 9
o'clock. The mills are owned by
Thomas and Henry Bolton and VIM.
II. Birchsll. The loss is estimated at
about $4,000 Mr.. Birchsll said that
the explosion WAS caused by the tin
cylinder drying cans, OF which there
were 100 In the mill. Wet cloth ia
rolled over these cylinders to dry. Il
is said that a certain amount oil perspi-
ration from the stesming OF the cloth
gathers on the inside OF the cylinders
during the day, and when the fire
reached them steam was generated
and the cans blew up. ABOUT loo
men and women, who comprise the
villsge, are thrown out Of work.
